/var/log/audit.log when using localed (4.12 KB, application/octet-stream)

Description Pete Travis 2013-03-21 04:23:02 UTC
Created attachment 713594 [details]
/var/log/audit.log when using localed

Description of problem:
Manipulating locale environment variables using `localectl` results in a number of denials. I'm not sure of the optimal format for including them, so the raw log output is attached.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.11.1-85.fc18.noarch
systemd-197-1.fc18.2.x86_64
policycoreutils-2.1.13-56.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:
// set to 'us' X11 keymap
`localectl set-x11-keymap us`
//restore default - an empty value
`localectl set-x11-keymap ""`

Either case results in the denials described.

I'm willing to provide further information as requested, of course.

Thanks,
--Pete
